Hey guys, I have just recently traded in my 2018 Si for a 2021 Type R. Love the car but I live in NJ so changing the tires is a must. So I went ahead and purchased a new set of Continental 245 35 R20 DWS06 Plus. This is the new version of the well known DWS06, and I wanted to share my first driving impressions if anybody else is in the hunt for these tires.
Now, I have not driven the car a lot with the new tires so I may update my thoughts later, but right of the bat I gotta say they ride almost as good as the stock tires. Noise levels same as stock IMO, grips definitely better, specially now in the winter time (25 degrees), handling may have been affected a little but it could just be in my head, not really sure yet. Same thing with cornering.
I had the DWS06 on my SS camaro and I think these are a bit better IMO so I would say if you are undecided between the two , I say go with the new version. Hope it helps. Peace.
